Athletic Bilbao will face Real Madrid in the Super Cup final in Riyadh after the two La Liga sides booked their places with wins over Atletico Madrid and Barcelona respectively. Bilbao came from down to sink Atletico 2-1 with late goals from Yeray Lopez and Nico Williams and claimed their place at the final. They are now unbeaten in their last four matches and will feel confident enough to take on Real Madrid. In the last four matches, they have three wins and two clean sheets; they’ve scored two or more goals in three of their last four matches and three of the last five have produced over 2.5 goals. Going into this game, Bilbao have three straight losses against Real Madrid and have managed just one win in seven meetings.,

Real Madrid extended their dominance over Barcelona with a 3-2 win in the semis, and go to this game having won each of their last three matches. The result means they’ve now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last five matches but they’ve scored two or more goals in four of the last five games. Four of Real’s last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they’ve failed to score in just one of the five. Karim Benzema will once again be key in this game, having scored five times in the team’s last five matches but Vinicius Jr, with three goals in the last two matches can’t also be ignored.
